Well......I want to scream. I have not had a garden the last 2 years (including this year) due to my health. I have been planning ways to amend this issue. After I made all my plans, I went to the deep freezer to dig out the bag of cherished organic heirloom seeds I have saved and it was gone. PANIC SET IN!! I went to the other freezer thinking I moved them, NOTHING! Went to Jims and check both of his freezers, STILL NOTHING! I was sitting in his livingroom in tears and he asked what was wrong. I told him. He looked so bewildered. He hollered at Carol & asked her about them. SHE said she didn't think they were needed because they had been in the freezer for a couple years so she had put the bag in the trash this last spring when we did not do a garden and now they have been burned with the garbage. EVERYTHING!! I feel devistated, violated, beaten into the ground and so much worse. I had a MASSIVE collection of a HUGE variety of vegetables, fruits and herbs (both medicinal & culinary). I have prided myself on always having enough seeds to share with others when they were asked for or needed and still having enough for myself, friends & family. NOW I have none. I went to Baker Creek and a few other places to order seeds, and it made me feel even worse. To get a minuscule selection ust to get me started would cost me well over several hundreds of dollars (I am still on disability and with a fixed income). I HATE asking for help more than anything, and I DO NOT WANT MONEY, but I need to know if any of you have organic heirloom seeds you could spare? ANY kind....well I do NOT do GMO or treated seeds....but ANY kind of heirloom seeds. I don't need a lot of any particular thing, I have great luck getting things to germinate and produce, I can save my own seeds and seeds for others in the future, from my crops easily....but I need something to get started with. I feel like a mooch after not being on here for so long, I have not forgotten anyone here, but life is insane on this end. If you do not want to or cannot help, I completely understand. But if there is anyone out there that has any seeds they can spare, I would SERIOUSLY appreciate the help!! I am SO sorry I have to ask for help like this.
If you can, PLEASE mail them to me so I can get on with planning my garden for next year. Right now I have some sort of zucchini seed and some straight eight cucumber seeds. That is it. I am desperate to the point of putting my mailing address on here.
